ALEXA GAINING FURTHER INTERNET PRESENCE AS JUNO AND EIGER LABS FORM PROMOTIONAL
                                    ALLIANCE
Companies offer new Juno Web subscribers 100% rebate on popular MP3 music player

STRATFORD, ONTARIO, SEPTEMBER 1, 1999 -- Alexa Ventures' (TSE:AXA,) President
and CEO, Gerry Racicot, said today the announced promotional alliance between
Juno Online Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: JWEB), a provider of Internet-related
services to millions of computer users throughout the United States, and Eiger
Labs, Inc. will greatly strengthen Alexa's Internet presence.

On July 19, 1999, Alexa entered into a Letter of Intent to purchase 64% of Eiger
Labs. The purchase is now only subject to regulatory approval.

"The purchase of Eiger Labs is an outstanding opportunity for Alexa as today's
promotional alliance between Eiger and Juno shows. We fully intend to be a major
Internet participant and Eiger gives us the platform to do it," stated Racicot.

Under the terms of the arrangement, buyers of Eiger's F-20V MP3 Player, which
has a suggested list price of $119.99, will be eligible to receive a $120
mail-in rebate when they sign up for a one-year subscription to Juno's full
Internet access service, Juno WebSM.

"The agreement with Juno is part of our plan to provide our customers with the
best value," said Y. K. Kim, president of Eiger. "Through the joint promotion
with Juno, we intend to significantly expand the market share of the MP3 Player,
which is already one of the most popular digital music devices on the market."

Eiger's F-20V MP3 Player comes with 32MB of memory, representing 35 minutes of
CD-quality music. Additional memory can be furnished by a SmartMedia flash
memory card. Eiger's MP3 Player weighs only 2.4 ounces and comes with Mega bass
support, stereo earphones, an AC adapter, a leather belt-clip, and all necessary
cables and software to load the player with music from either the Internet or
compact discs.

"We're happy to be working with Eiger Labs to provide consumers with a
high-value offer," said Michael Yavonditte, a vice president for business
development at Juno. "Not only will our new subscribers be getting fast,
reliable Web access, they'll also be getting a cutting-edge piece of hardware
that happens to be a lot of fun to use."

Eiger's F-20V MP3 Player will be available at Onsale, Amazon.com, Egghead.com,
and other participating nationwide retailers.
